Title: Polypeptides a chaine unique modifies par oxyde de polyalkylene
Inventor: WHITLOW MARC D
IPC: C07K19/00
Filed: 1998-04-30
Abstract: La présente invention concerne la modification chimique de polypeptides à chaîne unique, que l'on effectue en attachant par covalence des brins de polyéthylèneglycol, P.E.G., et des oxydes de polyalkylène similaires, à des molécules fixant les polypeptides à chaîne unique qui présentent un repliement tridimensionnel et, par conséquent, la capacité et la spécificité de fixation de la région variable d'un anticorps. Ces préparations de molécules modifiées fixant les polypeptides à chaîne unique sont dotées d'une immunogénicité et d'une antigénicité réduites et présentent une demi-vie plus longue dans la circulation sanguine en comparaison avec le polypeptide parent. Ces propriétés bénéfiques des molécules modifiées fixant les polypeptides à chaîne unique les rendent très utiles dans toute une gamme d'applications thérapeutiques. L'invention se rapporte également à des molécules multivalentes fixant les antigènes capables de polyéthylèneglycolation. L'invention concerne enfin des compositions de protéines polyéthylèneglycolées fixant les antigènes, des constructions génétiques, et des procédés d'utilisation et de production de ces dernières.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production de plaques de matériau céramique à partir d'un mélange formé par un matériau granulé et une phase de liaison inorganique dans lequel le mélange de départ est étalé sur un support constitué d'une toile ou d'un feutre résistant mécaniquement couvert d'une couche ou feuille de matériau de séparation perméable à la vapeur d'eau, tel que du papier. On couvre la couche de mélange d'une feuille protectrice de matériau de séparation, du caoutchouc de préférence, puis on forme la plaque en appliquant une pression de compactage sous vide ainsi qu'un mouvement vibratoire simultané. On enlève la feuille de caoutchouc de la plaque brute ainsi obtenue, qui est transférée avec un système de tenailles sur un support ou une grille en métal utilisée pour les étapes de séchage et de cuisson. On envoie alors la plaque vers un four de séchage après quoi, une fois la feuille de feutre retirée, on en recouvre la surface visible d'une couche de matériau réfractaire, on la retourne et on l'envoie dans le four de cuisson où le papier perméable est brûlé.

IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 1998-08-13
Abstract: An inflatable cuff used as an artificial sphincter may be used in either of two different ways. The first embodiment involves the cuff encircling the urethra for maintaining pressure on it to occlude it except when voiding the bladder. The second embodiment involves placing a one-way valve in the urethra which is encircled by the inflatable cuff such that the cuff is only inflated when it is desired to void the bladder by opening the valve in the urethra through pressure being applied to the exterior of the valve body. In each embodiment a syringe-type pump bulb is used which is connected to a one-way valve in turn connected to a tube to the inflatable cuff. The bulb side wall has sufficient memory to cause it to return to its normal expanded condition which causes the suction of fluid from the cuff when the manually operated valve is actuated. Fluid pumped to the cuff through the valve causes a positive pressure on the cuff side of the valve blade elements and a negative pressure on the bulb side which combine to assist in maintaining the valve in a sealed closed condition.

Filed: 1998-12-22
Abstract: A method and a system for completing a voice connection between a first and second voice terminal (26, 28) in a switched telephone network (10) are disclosed. The system includes a Virtual Switching Point (VSP) (46, 48) in a switched telephone network having a connection to a data network such as the Internet (34). Call requests are received by the VSP from the data network and processed by the VSP to establish a voice connection between a calling party which initiates the call request and a called party number indicated in the call request message. The call request message may include a plurality of called party numbers and the VSP completes calls to each number in sequence without terminating the voice connection with the calling party, until an attempt to connect with each of the called numbers has been made or a call control option is exercised by the calling party. The call connections are established and controlled by the VSP using CCS messages. The call connections are controlled by the calling party using data messages passed to the VSP via the data network. The advantage is an efficient, reliable method of initiating calls from a data network to permit a multi-call session without disconnection or dialing between calls and fully functional computer telephony integration and control over calling connections using the inherent switching power resident in the STN.
